Update: British Spy Chief Questions China's Role in UK Tech

The boss of MI6 has raised concerns about Chinese involvement in the UK's infrastructure.

The boss of MI6 has raised concerns about Chinese involvement in the UK's infrastructure. Alan Woodward at the University of Surrey analyses the potential threats. Also in the programme, United Nations-sponsored climate talks are getting under way in Katowice, Poland, from where our environment correspondent Matt McGrath brings us the details. To reduce traffic congestion, a ban on minibus taxis has been introduced in the central business district of Kenya's capital, Nairobi. We hear why operators and passengers think the new policy is unfair. We take a trip over the bridge between Denmark's Copenhagen and Sweden's Malmo, to hear how it has fostered economic co-operation, as the crossing turns 18. Plus our regular workplace commentator, Pilita Clarke, asks whether it is fair to charge people with bigger feet more for their shoes.
